You can call me Elle. I am three years into transition that began 2022. I have a love/hate relationship with being transgender but I become healthier everyday. I am latin mixed, I have the most stubborn fast metabolism. I like wearing cutesy ruffles, sweaters, skirts, tops, and I have 3a curly hair that cascades reaching below my neck. Hm, and what about other purely positive attributes about me? I enjoy spicy snacks, I kill for a quiet setting and peacefulness, when everyone is as is, cannot fail to pleasure me. I want to post about my body, intimacy, journey, and clothes, tips, and answer questions, and have fun on this platform.

    I’m assuming you’re aware about THE STRUGGLE, the ENTANGLEMENT, of curly hair, even when 3a-3b I still cannot bear the swallowing feeling of slower blood circulation aching my entire body when I have to brush upside down in the shower. If only there was a way to wake up and see loose, vibrant and spirals that flow curls to bloom throughout thunder… of which I mean the frizz nemesis.

      Yep! Head tilted in the shower, trying not to fall over and break my neck! Honestly though, I struggle with loving my hair. I know I should, but I find dealing with the curls such an endless task, it’s hard not to be resentful

          That’s also my face in my lemmy/piefed profile pic, and there’s a whole video on peertube!

          But, I don’t have the purple anymore. I just used that photo because it was a good photo of my hair, where I was controlling the frizz, rather than the other way around :P
